Abstract
The paper gives the results of a number of studies (DUET, TRIO, and others) that demonstrate the virological and immunological efficacies and safety of antiretroviral treatment (ART) regimens containing etravirine (ETR) for patients who have been previously treated with ART and had drug- or multidrug-resistant HIV. The SENSE study shows that Grade 1-4 neuropsychiatric adverse events (AEs) are significantly less frequently recorded in patients taking ETR than in those receiving efavirenz. There are two clinical examples of successfully switching patients to an ETR-containing ART regimen for previous treatment-emergent AEs. Based on both the results of foreign studies and own findings, the authors establish that ETR used in the ART regimens in patients with HIV/CHC co-infection, including in those treated for CHC with Peg, IFN, and ribavirin, is effective and safe. Elevated Al/AT levels in some patients suggest the activity of CHC or its inadequate treatment efficiency rather than the hepatotoxicity of an ABT regimen containing ETR. The performed investigations provide a rationale for the use of ETR as part in the ART regimens in case of both previous treatment failure and current treatment-emergent AEs, as well as in patients with HIV/CHC co-infection.
